Biohuman

Lee Seng woke up like he was waking up from a deep sleep. He was lying on the floor with large poofy tails covering him. One tail was tucked behind his head as he lifted himself off the floor, rubbing his eyes.

[Status: Good. You've successfully upgraded the Soul Bead to level 5.

Soul Bead Lvl. 5 0/10,000 souls (12,000 souls overflow max)

Possession Lv. 1 has been added to your Skill list!]

'How much time has passed?' Lee Seng asked as he set his hands on his tails. He could immediately feel the difference. They somehow changed from their energy-fluff feel to a more realistic feel. He instinctively pulled at it and didn't feel much of anything.

[Time Passed: 5 hours, 23 minutes, 29 seconds.]

'I've literally been asleep for that long?' Lee Seng moved his tails and stood up. His form shifted back into human form. He could feel the orb burning in his chest as he gathered himself.

[Notice: There were people that came through here not too long ago. They were looking for 'all of the trespassers.' I deducted David and Lisa are still alive.]

'That's good.' Lee Seng nodded. The burning feeling subsided as he removed the barrier from the door and stopped to listen. There was no noise. 'What does possession do?'

[Answer: Possession allows you to enter the mind of someone, completely with or without their permission, allowing you to deal much damage to your enemy while your in their mind and on the outside.]

'So it's a better version of Charm.' Lee Seng thought, pushing the door open and noticing the dimming sunlight. 'It's going to get dark in a couple of hours. I need to find where they're keeping the horses and get out of here.'

Lee Seng wandered the desolate city, hiding in buildings and listening out for anything out for any enemies along the way. His destination, he didn't know, but finding the Hell horses was his main goal. He didn't allow himself to think about his teammates. He just reminded himself that Lisa had come to an agreement with him. He hung onto that agreement and shushed any doubt.

He wandered for about another hour and a half and came to a stop when he heard loud noises. It sounded like thieves howling and laughing. He peeked out from behind the building and heard a loud snort. A large black fiery mane beast stood proudly near him. Many snorts came out and Lee Seng realized he had found the horses.

"HAHAHAHA! Go! Go! Go!" Thieves shouted as a thief got up onto one of the chained Hell horses in the middle of the street and tried to ride it. The horse began to fight against the thief rider, instantly kicking the guy off and onto the floor. The horse went for a stomp as chains tightened and stopped it from progressing any further.

"HAHAHAHAH! He didn't even last that long!" A thief cackled.

"Let me try!" Another thief moved past the thief on the floor. Lee Seng noticed the horses were roughly pinned all around the place. He pulled the hat out of his pocket and stuck it on his head. The nearest horse looked at him and began to happily snort at him.

"Shh." Lee Seng whispered at the horse. The horse neighed as it excitedly looked at the Shapeshifted Fox Spirit. "I'm a friend of your owner. I've come to save you." The horse neighed, again and the thieves turned.

"What the fuck is that one making so much noise?" A thief asked as Lee Seng pulled back behind the building.

"I'll release you guys. Go home, alright?" Lee Seng whispered. He heard a neigh in response as the horse started to move around like it was antsy.

"Go scare em! They're ruining the fun!" A thief slapped another.

"Fine, fine." The other thief grumbled. The thief made his way over, glaring at the horses as he passed. "Listen up you fuckers! Shut up!" He slammed his fist into the crude barrier. Lee Seng peeked his head out and didn't see any locks of sort.

'Mmm, I'll just rip off the whole thing.' Lee Seng thought. He locked his eyes on each 'crude' door for the gates around and raised his right hand up. He made a pull motion and watched as the horse he talked to bellowed a deep and guttural neigh he had never thought he could hear. Other horses took this noise as their time to run as the crude door slammed into the thief and the horses began to take off.

"What the fuck is happening?!?" Thieves shouted. "Get them!" Hell horses bolted, many recognizing the hat Lee Seng was wearing and neighing as if they were acknowledging him. Lee Seng waved his hat at them  and motioned for the others to come.

"Get them!" A commanding thief shouted. Guns whipped out and shot in the air. Horses panicked causing more chaos as Lee Seng's attention went straight to the thieves.

'Can I possess from this far?' Lee Seng asked.

[Answer: You're out of distance.]

Lee Seng cursed under his breath as he gathered another absurd idea. He took a couple steps back and ran, launching himself into the air as his body cracked. He shapeshifted himself into one of the Hell Horses and flew his way straight towards the thieves.

"Get that one! He looks like he wants to fight!" The commanding thief pointed. Gunshots moved straight onto Lee Seng just like he wanted. He rushed them as bullets fired at him. A cosmic shield flew up in front of him, ricocheting the bullets as horses panicked. Lee Seng looked at the commanding thief.

'Possession.' The horse completely disappeared as a lingering shield blocked gunshots from the rest of the horses attempting to flee out of fear. Lee Seng's entire essence flew into the commander. The commander lurched forward and stumbled as other thieves turned to look at him.

"Are you okay?" The thief asked before looking around for the horse that charged them.

"Where the horse go?" Another thief asked.

"I don't know! All of the horses are disappearing!" Another responded.

"At least we have this one, right, Commander?" They looked at their commander for a response but his body continued to stay hunched over. "Commander? Are you okay?" The thief came over slowly and reached out for him but was met with their commander's hand grabbed their arm. In an instant the thief was slammed into the ground as the commander shot them in the head.

"Commander!" The thieves shouted, turning their own guns to point at their own ally. "What's the meaning of this?!?" The commander stood quiet and slowly rose and turned to look at the others. For a moment, the thieves thought they saw red and blue eyes staring back at them, but only their commander's dull gray eyes looked at them.

"Possessed." The commander waved the gun at the dead thief. "Didn't you listen to HQ?" He took a step forward as he casually waved the pistol in his hand. "Those intruders can possess you."

"He got possessed?" A thief asked. "How?"

'They bought it?' Lee Seng cackled in his head. He held control of the Commander as the poor spirit shook within the confines of his own soul.

"What do we do? How do we figure out who's possessed?!?" A thief asked.

"Shouldn't we contact HQ that we got attacked?!?" Another asked.

"We weren't listening and having fun with the horses. Glasq will kill us if she finds out we dicked around with that rancher's horses!" Another chimed in.

"Glasq will kill us all if we don't do our jobs." The commander waved at the horse. "We've lost them. We need to find them." A single thief looked at the commander with an uneasy feeling. This one gave Lee Seng the impression something bad was going to happen.

"What? You don't believe me?" The commander asked the suspicious thief. The others turned to look at him as the thief continued to not remove his glare from the Commander.

"Hey! Answer him!" A thief shouted.

"He's probably possessed." The Commander raised his gun up at the thief. This snapped him out.

"When were you ever about this job?" The thief asked as other thieves pointed their guns at him. "You're not—"

"Shut up. You're possessed!" A thief shot the thief without mercy. The Commander pulled the trigger and shot another guy dead.

"Commander, what's—"

Boom.

The Commander's body fell dead as the strange form of a Fox humanoid hovered over the commander's dead body.

'Death puts me out of it. Cool.' Lee Seng noted.

"Who're you?!? What did you do?!?" A thief shouted as all of the guns pointed at him. Lee Seng rose and smiled behind the mask.

"Poor souls. A huge ass Hell horse doesn't just vanish." Lee Seng clicked his tongue as he shook his head. Five tails sprawled out behind him as he scanned the remaining thieves.

'Seven.'

"The only smart one who noticed me was the guy you shot dead." Lee Seng nodded.
